"The transition from a paradigm in crisis to a new one from which a new tradition of normal science can emerge is far from a cumulative process, one achieved by an articulation or extension of the old paradigm. Rather it is a reconstruction of the field from new fundamentals, a reconstruction that changes some of the field's most elementary theoretical generalizations as well as many of its paradigm methods and applications. During the transition period there will be a large but never complete overlap between the problems that can be solved by the old and by the new paradigm. But there will also be a decisive difference in the modes of solution. When the transition is complete, the profession will have changed its view of the field, its methods, and its goals." [1]
The translation of new concept at an institution is a challenging task. To teach the modern biomedical sciences to achieve goals of changing the tradition that basic research actually is the major vehicle that moves the wheels of science education forward not the other way around. In my experience, any kind of transition has never been easy or painless—but in many ways, biomedicine is on the cusp of such a period of change, along with much of biology, microbiology and epidemiology. It is partly due to our growing new understanding of the functions of gene regulation and gene editing technologies (i.e. RNAi, miRNA and CRISPR/cas9), which may ultimately prove to be as profound and far-reaching as was the discovery of double helix of DNA in 1950s and development of recombinant DNA technology five decades ago. Furthermore, as with recombinant technology, this new approach should lend itself to many practical applications and engineered solutions—in health disparities, gender based disparities and many other variants in our susceptibility to different diseases.
In light of rapid progresses in diagnostics and due to emerging technology, it is critical to keep our students updated and informed about the dynamic changes of biomedicine. A few years ago, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) brought a new revolution in the cloning andsequencing technologies. Currently, PCR arrays, Stem Cell based regenerative methods; Biotechnology, Bioinformatics, transgenic technology and most importantly Gene editing technology appear to bring new insight into every aspect of Biomedicine. During Bush era Biodefense had become the focus of the federal government funding; now it is Health Disparity Research, Forensics and Cybersecurity that will take the central stage and we need to be prepared for this paradigm shift. In the Information Age, the most valued commodities are the information and the skills to utilize the information by our students. Biomedical scientists and technicians are being challenged, as they never have been before. Workers are expected to know how to use wireless devices, computer-interfaced equipment, robotics, and high-technological applications. Soon, DNA fingerprinting will be the most commonly used method of forensic identification and medical record authentication. Whereas, retinal scans may be the form of personal ID. We need to be in this field as the pioneers and develop computer based record cards and microchip technology to beat the ivy leagues. The impact of technology on all of the world's affairs has become increasingly obvious, and its presence in our students' academic lives is subsequently more crucial than ever before.
I believe that a teacher must prepare students for the challenges of the present time and open their minds to the unlimited future possibilities. This cannot be achieved just by teaching them materials from the course books. The goal should be broaden the vision of the world a student has. A well informed student is whose' mind is open to the world not to his/her limited geographic area or culture. A broadly aware student who is familiar with other cultures, religions and ideologies not only makes a well-educated human beings but a very successful individual.

Dr. Panasik received the Hunter award in 2011.
Teaching, especially in the sciences, has often taught from a "top-down" approach, with knowledge generally passed through lecture and applied in predictable laboratory experiences. This "Sage on the Stage" approach, while often employed due to the large amount of information that must be conveyed, turns out to be less innovative and productive for both professors and students and less effective at engaging students in crucial science careers. The collaborative, interdisciplinary, and exploratory nature of the sciences demands that we instill a critical and creative thought process in our students and this happens best when students are internally motivated to critically think about problems and creatively apply scientific concepts to solve them.
At the heart of my style of teaching is incorporation of real research questions in the classroom and use of student-centered active-learning projects that explore real research-based answers. This is coupled with a pedagogical approach that uses a wide array of mediums (from teaching advanced video editing techniques to turning the students themselves into peer teachers) to present concepts in the course to the largest variety of learning styles. The added interest that is engendered in students when they find out they are working on authentic, cutting edge questions in the field, and begin to see how the knowledge they are learning is applied and used creates an indispensably powerful tool to motivate students not only to succeed academically but to consider research as a possible career goal. By making content available in a variety of learning formats it ensures that no matter who the student is, they find an approach to learning that works best for them.
The same disciplinary research that keeps me up to date and fully engaged with developments in bioinformatics, protein folding, and protein structure determination also plays an important role in course development and content. I believe exposure to recent research benefits students by including them in the most exciting, rigorous, and vibrant activities of the academic community. More specifically, my research, in structure-function relationships and design of novel enzyme functions, serves as a fantastic medium to engage students at both graduate and undergraduate levels.
In one example, as implemented in the education plan in my NSF Early CAREER Award, I teach an undergraduate biochemistry lab course. While students learn all of the traditional concepts and methods of a typical biochemistry course – protein purification, PCR, enzyme kinetics etc, they do this entirely in the context of a semester long project in the Directed Evolution of thermostable bio-fuel enzymes. The course begins with brainstorming how one might go about changing the function of an enzyme where exact structure-function relationships are not known and proceeds through the development (by the students) of the steps and protocols of a directed evolution project. This becomes a powerful context in which to discuss issues of evolution, selection, and common heritage as well as protein structure-function relationships and experimental design. Students are encouraged to come up with alternate approaches to these scientific approaches and we debate the relative strengths and weaknesses of both. By couching student contributions to discussion in the context of disciplinary methods and critical thinking strategies, I help students realize how the work in this specific class intersects with and illuminates other fields and scientific questions. This strategy has been particularly important with my freshmen and sophomore students who are thirsty for a big picture understanding of how their chosen career paths might intersect with this and other fields.
Commensurately, in order for such a student-centered approach to work, a 'teacher' has to become acutely aware of the starting knowledge, academic preparation, interests and learning styles of the students he or she is prepared to teach. Only by mastering the learner's point of view may the teacher become a true facilitator of learning. A key feature of my approach is to first learn about the students and then present materials in a fashion that can apply to the wide variety of their learning styles and interests. Beginning with a variety of interactive assessment approaches including first day questionnaires, learning style surveys, brainstorming sessions, and email discussions, I learn information necessary to tailor my lecture examples and lab classes to those that fit the students' stated objectives in the course, compliment what they are learning in other courses, and finally, present course materials in multiple ways – each accessible to a different learning style. Several of these pedagogical methods for reaching different learning styles are currently submitted for publication in teaching and learning journals.
One of the pedagogical tools that I have developed that I am most proud of, "Lecture Expertise", has each student, once in a semester, film a course lecture. They have one week to use video editing software which I teach them to use, to edit appropriate PowerPoint slides into the video, accompanied by notes of the "Class Scribe" (another pedagogical tool). The students have full editorial control over the aesthetics and such projects typically elicit a great deal of excitement both at the scientific content of the lecture and in learning video editing skills. The editing in this assignment necessitates watching and re-watching the lecture for "splice points" and is a particularly powerful learning medium for visual learners. This method has been shown to increase performance on relevant test questions by over 12% and has led to a repository of over 80 lecture videos for students to use as additional study materials.
Underlying these teaching strategies is my fundamental belief that teaching should be approached with the same academic rigor as other scholarly activities. I strive to remain engaged with the scholarship of teaching and learning and to use research-based principles to guide my classroom strategies. In this way I hope to provide the best possible environment for my students.

The main goal of my teaching is to foster active learning. Majority of the students are eager to learn to develop them intellectually and professionally. However, their learning styles may be different. Moreover, students in a classroom generally are of with different levels of intellectual and learning ability on the subject matter.
At the beginning of each course and also of each chapter I try to assess the knowledge level of my students in the class by asking them some basic questions. Similarly, I also try to understand their learning styles. Considering their knowledge level and learning styles I design and deliver my lesson where I utilize a variety of technology that supports their effective learning.
I tell my students that learning is a process and mistakes are a natural part of the learning. I encourage them to actively participate in my class and persuade them to ask questions. I challenge my students with problems, the solution of which require critical thinking and also encourage them for brain storming among group members and also to work as a team. Wherever possible, I provide real life examples and incorporate most recent learning skills to meet future challenges.
After delivery of lessons in a designed course, I routinely assess the learning outcomes and continuously redesign the course based on the outcome. I believe that the job a teacher is to create an atmosphere that foster creative and active learning. I also emphasize the importance of general education courses to add values and developing skills for building a strong foundation in any field of education that will ultimately prepare them for professional jobs with competitive salary.
Dr. Shivji received the Hunter Award in 2014
Mentors play a key role in molding student's lives. I am deeply committed to excellence in teaching and mentorship. My teaching philosophy is to enrich students by providing them with clear and intellectually stimulating learning experiences, to empower them with knowledge and to guide them through examples and associated stories. As far as teaching is concerned, I take great pleasure in preparing my lectures well in advance and having a thorough grasp of the subject. I believe in creating a learning atmosphere by using a variety of teaching methods such as group projects, power point presentations, videos, internet resources, virtual labs, etc. I also contribute to the learning atmosphere by encouraging appropriate interactions among students. The exciting part to me is seeing the expression on the student's faces at the outcome of the experiments conducted. The best part is that students also enjoy and take interest in what they have learnt.
Diversity is an essential and important part in higher education. To achieve this objective, I always try to put emphasis on the practical aspect of theories and concepts of science. I always try to supplement theoretical concepts with laboratory based experiments and assignments. These methods not only impart knowledge but also foster critical thinking, which in turn facilitates the acquisition of life-long learning skills, prepares students to have a better knowledge of the subject, and develop problem solving strategies.
Through professional and personal growth, my basic philosophy of teaching and learning has and will evolve and change. The scholarly activities that I am engaged in have a significant impact on my development as a teacher. With my teaching, I always try my very best to be an inspiration to the students, so that they can be successful in their career and someday be an inspiration to the future generations.

Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin says the initial goal of completing tax reform before the August congressional recess is no longer feasible because of the delay in getting health-care reform completed. But that's an excuse, not an explanation. The truth is that the administration is spending significant time during its first months in office figuring out what its real agenda is, including how to get that agenda through Congress, instead of trying to actually pass something. The risk is now very real that the first year of this presidency will come and go with little to show for it in terms of significant legislative changes.
The seeds for this problem were planted in the campaign. Trump correctly understood that most voters aren't interested in detailed policy proposals; he wasn't interested in them, either. He preferred to criticize his predecessors and competitors and to promise broad improvement around populist themes. Trump and everyone around him seemed to think they could figure out "the what and the how" of governance once he got into office.
The Trump campaign's indifference to developing a ready-to-go first-year agenda, along with a realistic legislative strategy, is now hindering the administration. Top White House and agency officials are spending significant time and energy deciding what they want to accomplish rather than trying to accomplish it. The new team is also finding out how hard it is to get something done in the first year of a presidency without the benefit of a running start provided by the campaign.
To be fair, every new administration has a steep learning curve, and many policies are fully developed only after a new president is able to harness the expertise gained from presiding over the executive branch. But no recent administration has come into office with its plans as uncertain as this one's.
Taxes were something of an exception during the campaign, in that Trump associates put some effort into policy development. The campaign released two different tax-reform plans — one in 2015, aimed at influencing the GOP primaries, and the other in 2016, aimed more at a general-election audience. But even with these plans, it was always clear that the candidate wasn't really invested in them. Trump never fully embraced their details or described them to voters. He spoke in general terms about wanting to cut taxes, and that was it. He purposely left the impression that he might pursue something entirely different after the election.
Which is what he is now doing — five months after he won the presidency. News reports indicate that he has directed his staff to start over on a reform plan because he is unsatisfied with the options they brought to him. Producing a completely revised approach on taxes is extremely complex, requiring sophisticated modeling and analytical work. Consequently, a new plan is now likely to be weeks, if not months, away from being ready.
As the administration considers its options on taxes, Trump says he wants Congress to take up health care again. But if, as the president suggested, tax reform is better taken up after a health-care plan passes (a dubious contention), the administration has presented no clear game plan for getting a viable health-care plan all the way through Congress and onto the president's desk anytime soon either.
The New York Times reported that the plan put together in the House — the American Health Care Act, or AHCA — was short ten to 15 votes when GOP leaders decided to pull it back from consideration on the House floor. It is possible, therefore, that in the coming days and weeks, a compromise between the Freedom Caucus and more-moderate members of the Republican conference would swing enough votes to allow for passage of the bill in the House. But even if that were to occur, the bill would face a daunting path to passage in the Senate.
The AHCA's fundamental problem is that it is widely viewed by rank-and-file House and Senate members — even among those who were prepared to vote for it — as flawed, substantively and politically, because it would make insurance less secure for many millions of people. The bill has the core structure of a sound plan, but, in its details, it would further destabilize the individual insurance market and lead to a large increase in the number of people with low incomes who would go without health insurance.
The discussion between the Freedom Caucus and more-moderate Republicans in the House is focused on how to provide secure and affordable insurance options to people with preexisting conditions. That is an important consideration, but the AHCA's problems go well beyond that. Moving the bill through to enactment will probably require a more fundamental reassessment as well as a political strategy that will increase the chance of passage. If the AHCA wins only Republican votes, it will probably fail: It will be almost impossible to get near-unanimous GOP support for something with so much political baggage. The administration, and Congress, should pivot to a more viable strategy that could attract some bipartisan support.
On the budget, the Trump administration released a partial plan in March to increase defense spending for fiscal year 2018 while cutting most domestic agencies by a comparable amount. The cuts in domestic programs — totaling $54 billion, or around 10 percent of the total — were never mentioned during the campaign and generally lack a strong policy rationale beyond saving money. Congress is unlikely to go along with them, which means that the most likely scenario for 2018 will be an increase for defense (which is needed) and status quo for everything else.
It will be harder to pass significant reforms next year, as opposed to this year, because all House members and many Senators will be looking ahead to the midterm election.
The full budget, covering taxes and entitlement spending as well as appropriated spending, is slated to be released next month. At this point, we don't know whether this full budget plan will include significant reforms that Trump would like to see enacted this year. He avoided getting specific on cuts or reforms during the campaign, and nothing has been mentioned in the early months of the administration beyond endorsing the Medicaid reforms in the House health-care bill. Because Trump was never clear about his intentions on fiscal policy during the campaign, it is unclear if his budget plan will be embraced or rejected by different factions of the GOP. Indeed, it is possible, and perhaps likely, that the same ideological divisions that are making it tough to pass the AHCA would also make it impossible to pass a budget in Congress.
This month, the administration set in motion an ambitious effort to reorganize the federal government, but the president won't submit anything concrete to Congress until February 2018, so any reforms that Congress might agree to wouldn't take effect until 2019, at the earliest. Needless to say, it will be harder to pass significant reforms, including elimination of government agencies and programs, next year as opposed to this year, because all House members and many Senators will be looking ahead to the midterm election when the calendar turns to 2018.
Presidents are elected for four years, so there is still plenty of time for the Trump administration to make progress and pass important legislation in Congress. But the first year is often important to the overall success of new presidents, and, after three months, it looks as though this administration is still getting itself organized and deciding on a game plan.
Not all of what the Trump administration is now doing could have been handled during the campaign, but some of it could have been done then. If it had been, the administration would be better positioned than it is to capitalize on the limited political momentum that helps push initiatives along in year one. By year two, the momentum is generally gone.

Ben has called dibs on this and is in heavy research on the matter in the archives as we speak.
"Dymetricist" was originally an archaic term used to refer to anyone who undertook drastic measures to increase their own intelligence, be those measures cybernetic or chemical or even simply years of intense study. However, as more people who were concerned with such things adopted the use of inheritable biogenetic modifications, the term gradually came to refer only to the specific subrace of humanity that it currently describes.
Rumours of Dymetricists having psychic powers have repeatedly failed to be proven in scientific studies. "Precognition" often stems from an increased understanding of a situation and what factors will be significant determiners of the future, as well as how to phrase a prediction in vague or self-fulfilling terms. Claims of mind-reading have also been shown to be a heightened awareness of non-verbal behavioral patterns which can make deceiving a Dymetricist in person a rather difficult task. Nevertheless, these superstitions abound whenever Dymetricists are discussed, and were no doubt encouraged by the Dymetricists themselves.
Dymetricists have always experienced discrimination from society that resented their claims of "superior" intelligence, and many sought out the company of their own kind, forming an informal society called "Kelvod" roughly 200 Alphas years before the Orbital Wars. During the opening phases of the Orbital Wars, it was discovered that usage of Allelodrene often increased Dymetricist abilities in children born under its influence. This led to rampant abuse of the drug by Kelvodists, and fears from the public about the consequences of this.
Shortly after the publishing of Kelvod Agitation Theory during the second phase of the Orbital Wars, the Union announced the Kelvodian Exile. While this seemed a maneuver against Kelvod, most historians currently agree that Kelvodian Dymetricists were actually behind it, as it brought about a sharp increase in Kelvodian group solidarity, and forced most Dymetricists to either join the newly formed Axis of Kelvod or suffer persecution at the hands of the rest of society.
It should be noted that, while they were a rare exception, there were non-Kelvodian Dymetricists after the Kelvodian Exile, such as the short-lived [Outopian Society]?. Also, for almost every famous scientist, there are those who will claim that figure was secretly a Dymetricist, but it must be remembered that people are capable of brilliance without the genetic variances identified as responsible for Dymetricist abilities.

For every restoration type there are a variety of manufacturers providing all types of components. It can be difficult to know which components to choose and whether they will work together to ensure long-term restorative success. Before you commit to any kind of component, it is important to consider that restorations that may appear to fit but have not been carefully designed to work together can lead to complications. These complications range from screw loosening to implant breakage and system failure.
Prosthetic restorations should be checked regularly during control visits. However, as there are no commonly shared guidelines for prosthetic aftercare check-ups these can depend on the case and the clinician.
Sometimes technical complications occur or are discovered during the follow up. Porcelain chipping and screw loosening are among the most common types of complications. Repair should always be preceded by a thorough check of possible causes of the complication (e.g. overloading by incorrect occlusion) to prevent it happening again.
► Visit the Foundation for Oral Rehabilitation (FOR) for more guidance on single-unit restoration aftercare
There are cases where screw loosening occurs more often and the patient needs to come in for screw tightening outside the planned aftercare visits. These unexpected additional visits are inconvenient for the patient and increase the emotional burden linked with dental treatment. For the clinician, treating these patients means increased chair time and potential loss of business, as the time could have been spent taking care of a new paying customer.
While there is a lack of data related to the causes of screw loosening, in the second chapter of their recent e-book FOR presents factors that can contribute to screw loosening. Both finite element analysis and biomechanical testing indicate that several parameters can impact the performance of an implant system. System performance issues may not be visible to the naked eye; components may fit together but can still cause problems if not properly designed and tested to work together.
A Nobel Biocare abutment with a Nobel Biocare implant; forces are distributed evenly (left). A non-Nobel Biocare abutment with a Nobel Biocare implant may lead to uncontrolled force distribution (right).
How can you ensure a strong system? According to a recent article,3 accepted requirements for long-term maintenance and performance of implant cases include:
Adhering to these requisites helps ensure that implant components will not need to be retrieved or disassembled, screws will not loosen, and the implants themselves will not fracture once placed.
Insufficient preload leads to increased relative motion between the system components, which is a causative factor of screw loosening or even component failures. Conversely, preload values that are too high can result in fracture of the componentry.4 In order to help avoid incorrect preload values, many manufacturers deliver a dedicated clinical screw with their abutments.
Nobel Biocare delivers clinical screws that have been optimized for the implant-abutment system that they're part of. Depending on the abutment, connection type and platform size, screws are with or without coating, ensuring a strong and stable fit between the abutment and implant.
For example, diamond-like carbon (DLC), a coating for screws marketed under the brand TorqTite, shows higher preload values compared with screws that have a standard titanium surface (P<0.001).5
Simple actions can make a big difference. Careful selection of the prosthetic components, the restoration and the screw will help. Additionally:
The implant-abutment system is interconnected, and the performance of any component depends not only on the component itself, but also on its interactions within the system. Therefore, choosing components that have been designed to fit and work together long term will be the safest way to ensure restorative success and patient satisfaction.

CREW TV brings you closer to the industry's
most influential leaders and thinkers. Click on the videos below to watch the interviews:
In this episode of Investor Insight, CREW TV explores the ways investors are banding together to protect their rents and using Realtors to win concessions from developers.
CREW's Jemima Codrington interviews Adam Brind, an agent with Re/Max Condos - Core Assets Team, Randy Ramadhin, a broker with Century 21 - Green Realty Inc., and Marcel Greaux, the founder of the Toronto Real Estate Club, provide those insights.
Video transcript below:
Jemima Codrington: Okay, so you found your safe spot, your correction proof spot in the condo market, but now what. Hi, I'm Jemima Codrington and welcome to Investor Insight on Crew TV.
Investors in the condo market tend to be an independent bunch. But with tens of thousands of new units set to hit the market, this attitude may need to change. Investors will increasingly need to rely on experts for help as well as each other. Here's why.
Randy Ramadhin, Broker, Century 21 – Green Realty Inc.
Randy Ramadhin: As a real estate broker and author of investing in condominiums, it's really important for buyers to realise, they need to work with an agent to be able to protect their interests. Having a buyer go directly into a sale centre, it's really not in their best interest. They have to develop strategy, work with an agent that knows the market, knows the particular strategy of you as a buyer, take hold of a lot of deals and offers that are given directly to actual brokers, get your agent to negotiate better deals, upgrades and freebies, like free parking or VIP prices and good luck!
Marcel Greaux, Founder, Toronto Real Estate Club
Marcel Greaux: There is definitely a concern with investors in the oversupply of the condo market and one of the things they can do to ensure the success of, you know good rental rates is to deploy a single source leasing agent. What this will do is protect investors from those in the building that will get nervous when the supply hits. That will ensure that rents are kept you know basically at market, whether it be one bedroom, studios and 2 bedroom rentals.
Jemima Codrington: So going it alone may not be the best way to maximise cash flow. Investors need to decide on a strategy and that needs to align with the investor's expectations.
Adam Brind, Agent, Remax Condos, Core Assets Team
Adam Brind: Yeah absolutely. So generally speaking when I meet with investor clients for the first time, what we like to do is, is very typical to any advisor, we like to get their or me personally, I like to get their goals and their idea, what kind of investor are they? First and foremost, we like to determine whether you know they are there for capital appreciation or they are for long term consisting growth, so value investor or a value player. And so that really helps me to determine which direction and where to put them in the market.

Youth claims false charges motivated by racism as CCTV footage leads to collapse of court case
Diane Taylor
The Guardian, Fri 24 Aug 2012 19.12 BST
A black teenager who says he has been stopped about 50 times by the Metropolitan police is planning to sue the force, claiming he has suffered almost four years of harassment and false charges, which he believes have been motivated by racism.
Between the ages of 14 and 17, the college student says he has faced a series of charges of which he has either been found not guilty or which have been dropped before getting to court, as well as numerous stops and searches and two strip searches, none of which identified any criminal activity. He says he has also been detained several times in police cells after which he was released without charge.
Last week the teenager appeared at Bromley youth court, southLondon, charged with assaulting a police officer. The case collapsed after CCTV footage contradicted the evidence in court of PC John Lovegrove, who claimed to have been assaulted by the youth during a stop and search.
The Crown Prosecution Service has admitted it did not review the case fully before it went to court and is to apologise to the youth for allowing the case to go ahead.
The Met police confirmed the acquittal but declined to comment further. However, it is understood concerns about this and other failed charges against the youth, and all the stops and searches, are being investigated by police.
Lovegrove claimed the youth, who was handcuffed behind his back at the time and forced to the ground by police, rolled over and, in doing so, caused grazing and bruising to the officer's knuckles. The youth was also accused of spitting.
However, the CCTV footage in court showed no evidence to support these claims.
The youth's solicitor, James Foong, told the court: "He appears to me to be lying there like a dead fish."
After the court was shown the CCTV footage the CPS offered no further evidence and the case collapsed.
The youth had been stopped by police in Sidcup, southLondon, on 11 February this year, after reports on the police radio that a named white suspect had threatened his father with a knife and had then run off. The police description was later amended to black or mixed race male.
Although no weapon or drugs were found on the youth, he remained handcuffed while the police forced him to the ground. He was then strip-searched at the police station. He had cigarette papers in his pocket and torn up cardboard that Lovegrove said could be used as a filter when smoking cannabis. No drugs were found during the strip search.
The youth said: "I can't think of any other reason why the police keep doing this to me apart from racism. I've been stopped and searched so many times I've lost count, I think it's about 50 times."
The Met police is 11 times more likely to stop and search black people than white ones, according to Equalities and Human Rights Commission research published earlier this year. It has accused the Met of racial profiling.
"I'm very relieved my son was cleared of a crime he did not commit," said his mother.
"If it wasn't for the CCTV footage, he probably would have been convicted on PC Lovegrove's evidence. But I can't relax because I don't know what the police are going to do next. I'm trying to move the family to a different area that will be safer for us. Because of the way my son is targeted by the police, I'm frightened to let him leave the house. I'm worried he will be arrested again and won't come back."
She added: "I believe my son has been targeted because of police racism. He has been accused of so many things – theft of a laptop, theft of a bike, doing etchings on a wall inside McDonalds. He's also been accused of being part of the Cherry Gang and of harassing young children for drug money. He's never done any of these things."
Lee Jasper, chair of the London Race and Criminal Justice Consortium said: "It is particularly shocking that this has been going on for such a long time and started when the boy was so young. This case exemplifies the harsh realities of being a black kid inLondon."
A CPS spokesperson said: "This youth was charged by the police with assaulting a constable and our review of the case relied upon a summary of the evidence and other information provided by the police. At trial, it was found the evidence did not support the charge and we decided to offer no evidence against the defendant.
"We fully accept we should have reviewed all of the evidence more thoroughly before the beginning of the trial."
The CPS will apologise to the youth "for not doing so and for not discontinuing the case earlier".
Foong said: "From what he has told me of his treatment and the evidence we have seen in court it would appear the police approach to this young man has been disproportionate and excessive."
The Met police said in a statement: "On 17 August, a 17-year-old male appeared at Bromley youth court accused of assault of a police officer atSidcup High Streeton 11 February 2012 … The case was discontinued by CPS and the youth was formally acquitted."

Metropolis of Detroit
The Metropolis of Detroit is a metropolis of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America in the United States of America, under the jurisdiction of the Church of Constantinople. The metropolis includes the states of Michigan, Arkansas, Kentucky, and parts of Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and upstate New York in the United States of America.
Prior to the establishment of metropolises as sub-organizations of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, the Detroit area was designated in 1968 the Seventh Archdiocese District of the Greek Archdiocese of North and South America. In 1979, the archdiocese was re-organized under a decree of the Ecumenical Patriarchate into a number of dioceses of which the Diocese of Detroit replaced the 7th district.
In 1996, the Archdiocese of North and South America was split into four separate archdioceses: those of America, Canada, Central America, and South America. With the establishment of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, the title of the dioceses was changed to metropolises and the Diocese of Detroit became the Metropolis of Detroit.
Parishes and Monasteries
There are forty six parishes[[1]], two chapels, a mission parish, and one monastery within the metropolis. The monastery is Holy Trinity Monastery of Smiths Creek, Michigan.

Nelson Mandela on life support, court documents show
- Court ordered the return of the remains two years after a Mandela grandson moved them
- Son says Mandela would be %22highly disappointed%22 by the family%27s squabbling
- Court affidavit obtained by the media says Mandela is on life support
JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Nelson Mandela is being kept alive by a breathing machine and faces "impending death," court documents show, as his family gravesite was restored Thursday.
Mandela's health is "perilous" and he is being kept alive by life support, according to documents filed in the court case that resulted in the remains of the former president's three deceased children being reburied Thursday in their original graves.
"The anticipation of his impending death is based on real and substantial grounds," the court filing said.
"He's basically gone," said Charlene Smith, an authorized biographer of the former anti-apartheid leader. "He's not there. He's not there."
A younger person put on mechanical ventilation — life support — can be weaned off the machine and recover, but that it can be difficult or impossible for an older person. The longer a person is on ventilation the less the chance of recovery, said the chief executive of the Faculty of Consulting Physicians of South Africa.
"It indicates a very poor prognosis for recovery because it means that he's either too weak or too sick to breathe on his own," said Dr. Adri Kok, who has no connection to Mandela's care. "Usually if a person does need that, any person, not keeping in mind his age at all, for any person it would be indicative of a grave illness."
"When they say 'perilous' I think that would be a fair description," she said.
In Mandela's hometown, Qunu, on Thursday, the bodies of three of his children were returned to their original resting site following the court order.
Family members and community elders attended a ceremony on the Mandela property that included the singing of hymns. The reburial took place in Qunu, where Mandela grew up and where the former president has said he wants to be buried. Forensic tests earlier confirmed the remains were those of Mandela's children.
Grandson Mandla Mandela moved the bodies to his village of Mvezo — Nelson Mandela's birthplace — in 2011. The two towns are about 25 kilometers (15 miles) apart. Fifteen Mandela family members pursued court action last week to force the grandson to move the bodies back to their original burial site.
Mandla Mandela — the oldest male Mandela heir and a tribal chief — told a news conference on Thursday that "my grandfather like myself would be highly disappointed in what is unraveling."
The bitter family feud comes as Mandela remains in critical condition nearly a month after being hospitalized for a recurring lung infection.
Mlawu Tyatyeka, an expert on the Xhosa culture of Mandela's family, said the court case over the graves was decided quickly because the family knows that Mandela will soon die.
"It's not a case of wishing him to die. It's a case of making sure that by the time he dies, his dying wish has been fulfilled," he said. "We have a belief that should you ignore a dying wish, all bad will befall you."
Meanwhile, Mandela's wife said the former president is sometimes uncomfortable but seldom in pain while being treated in a hospital.
Graca Machel spoke about her husband's condition at a fundraising drive for a children's hospital that will be named after the 94-year-old anti-apartheid leader.
"Whatever is the outcome of his stay in hospital, that will remain the second time where he offered his nation an opportunity to be united under the banner of our flag, under the banner of our constitution," she said.
Mandela, who was hospitalized on June 8, remains in critical but stable condition, according to a statement Thursday by President Jacob Zuma's office. Zuma visited Mandela Thursday, said the statement.
Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years during white racist rule and was freed in 1990 before being elected president in all-race elections. He won the Nobel Peace Prize along with former President F.W. de Klerk.

Vegetable Soup with Dumplings
This nutritious soup never gets boring, because the vegetables can vary depending on what's in season or on hand. In Dad's case, he was too young to help his older brothers in the fields, so he'd dig the vegetables of his choice out of the garden and help his mom prepare the soup. The dumplings are optional.
Total TimePrep: 20 min. Cook: 4 hours 20 min.
Makes5 quarts
- 2 to 3 meaty beef soup bones
- 3 quarts water
- 2 small onions, divided
- 1 bay leaf
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 2 medium carrots, cubed
- 1-1/2 cups canned diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 cups cubed cabbage
- 2 celery ribs, sliced
- 2 cups cut green beans
- 3/4 cup medium pearl barley
- Minced fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- Pinch salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- In a stockpot, place the beef bones, water, one onion and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Skim off foam. Reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for 3 hours or until meat falls off the bones.
- Discard bones, onion and bay leaf. Remove meat from the bones and dice. Skim fat from broth. Add the meat, remaining onion quartered, remaining vegetables, barley and parsley to the pot. Season to taste. Cover and cook for 1 hour or until barley and vegetables are tender.
- For dumplings, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add milk and stir just until moistened. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto simmering liquid. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean (do not lift the cover while simmering).

For now, all is quiet in Poster World ("…not a gallery was stirring…"), but the year ain't over yet, folks! Is a mind-blower of a poster drop lurking somewhere between now and January 1st? If so, will it be the poster we're all hoping it'll be, or something else entirely (our money's still on a Martin Ansin Parental Guidance)? Eh, who knows? Speculation like this only drives everyone crazy, and after we all just spent a week being driven nuts by our families, who needs that? Instead, let's focus on wrapping up our Top 20 Greatest Posters of 2012 list.
Confused? Everyone who missed Part One can get caught up on the back half of our list here. Once you've done that, check out our next round of picks (some of which might surprise you) by clicking the link below. Who made the cut? And who's probably gonna end up being named Poster MVP, 2012? Meet me after the jump to find out more, Princess.
Let me assure you: putting together a list of the year'sTop 20 Greatest Posters was no easy task. First, Limited Paper had to track down half a dozen hardcore collectors, artists, and/or poster-industry "professionals" who would be willing to weigh in on this admittedly silly matter. We then looked at work from just about every artist and gallery we could think of, from our friends at Spoke Art, Mondo, Bottleneck Gallery, and Gallery1988 to relative newcomers like the UK's LtDEdition Art and Austin's own Guzu Gallery. And then–over a grueling five-hour period—many Top 20 lists were made and amended, scrapped and rewritten, Bedazzled and annotated, some of them dozens of times over. We eventually found a lineup we could agree on, yes, but not every person on our panel survived those discussions.
Part One ran earlier this week (see link above), and originally we planned on finishing out the list with a 10-poster Part Two. But in addition to 10 posters, we also wanted to name an artist as 2012's Poster MVP, and by the time we got halfway through this batch of picks we knew this would've been way, way too much for one writeup. So today, we're offering our next 5 picks for the Top 20 Greatest Posters of 2012, and tomorrow we'll be back with the final five…and the name of the year's baddest-ass artist. Surely you guys don't mind, right?
Oh, and one other thing: you're going to notice that we doubled up prints for a few of the artists here. If we hadn't, we would've spent the next four years refining this list. We've got one genuine tie in the entire top ten (it's at #9) and a few artists who had more than one excellent, top-ten worthy print, but hey: our list, our rules. With that in mind…
10. Josh Budich—(TIE) A Bigger Boat, Brody
Let's speak frankly: there's been a fair amount of online debate surrounding Josh Budich's style over the past few years, particularly a few prints that some have deemed "a little too Tyler Stout" for their liking. That side believes the collage-style movie print is Stout's territory, and that trying to out-Stout Stout is a sucker's game at best…and lazy copycatting at worst. And on that, our panel agreed: of course no one can touch Tyler Stout when it comes to being Tyler Stout. But we also weren't convinced Budich's ever been aiming for that. Sure, he might release a print with a dozen faces on it, and that may be the format we've come to expect from Stout over the years… but as brilliant as Stout is, he didn't invent the idea of a group shot.
But more importantly: this year saw Budich turning out a number of posters that indicated his willingness to break out of his comfort zone, to experiment, and—well, hey, whatta ya know—amongst those I spoke with, there was quite a bit of support for the pair of Jaws-themed prints Budich produced this year (one for Guzu Gallery's Kaiju-themed show, the other for Gallery88). I agreed with those that thought these pieces rocked, and we hope he'll continue changing things up in the future.
9. (TIE) Olly Moss—Princess Mononoke, Jock—Shaun of The Dead
Here it is: an impasse. In one corner, Olly Moss' brilliant Princess Mononoke (which dropped during this summer's San Diego Comic-Con), which served as a perfect fit for his also-brilliant My Neighbor Totoro set. In the other corner, Jock's stunning Shaun of The Dead print (dropped at this year's New York Comic-Con). With only ten spots to go around, something had to give. Turned out, the only thing giving in was us: we're allowing these two a tie, and good luck trying to pick between 'em yourself.
Quick shout-out: Olly Moss and Jock are two of the nicest guys you'll ever meet in Poster World, and every time I get a chance to speak with 'em I'm reminded that massive success doesn't always have to translate to douchebaggery. Pay attention, Taylor Lautner.
8. Alexander Iaccarino—Akira
I recall the morning this one came out of left field. I was putting together the day's Limited Paper, and about half a dozen messages arrived at the same time pointing me in the direction of Iaccarino's website (www.ThatKidWhoDraws.com), where the above poster was being offered for sale. A flurry of conversations erupted as the link made its way through the collecting community ("Should I buy the little one or the big one?!" seemed to be the big question that day), and it seemed well-liked enough to warrant inclusion in that morning's still-unfinished installment of Limited Paper. So, I tossed a photo of Alex's Akira print and a link to his site (both of which were also getting some play on Ain't It Cool News, if I remember correctly) into that writeup, went on with my day, and–within hours—I got word that the dude had sold out Akira's entire run—both sizes.
Alexander Iaccarino quite literally went from "just another artist with an online website" to "selling out an entire run, working with Sony on one of their biggest video game titles, and becoming a gallery-show regular" virtually overnight, but it wasn't just because he got lucky with a link getting passed around by a few well-connected jackasses: he also created a fucking gorgeous poster, one that deserved to make him "overnight famous" in the community. It was incredibly awesome to see that unfold in real time, and even greater when Iaccarino turned out to be such a nice guy (if prints arrived damaged, he sent new copies immediately; if I had questions, he had answers; ask him for a photo, he'd send an entire roll). We haven't talked to Alex recently, but bet he's working on something awesome right this minute.
7. Craig Drake— (TIE) The Hunger, Bride
Picking between these two also proved impossible, so here we are. We figured that people pretty much fall into two categories: those who'd prefer to have a (desperately-in-need-of-a-bib) vampire David Bowie on their wall…and those who'd prefer to have a Pat Nagel-style take on the Bride of Frankenstein's (oddly slutty-looking) reanimated corpse on their wall. Whichever one you are, I think we can all agree that we're all winners in the end.
Craig Drake was another of 2012's biggest pleasant surprises, a guy who probably wasn't on the radar of too many people (beyond a handful of Star Wars obsessives) prior to the Mondo Gallery's Brandenburg and Drake Show, but who came out the other side of that gig being pursued by a number of other galleries and endlessly questioned by fans who desperately wanted to own print versions of a few of his OG-only pieces. In the end, we got screenprints of almost every Craig Drake print we might've wanted this year (I'd still like a Snake Plissken), and it's gonna be awesome to see where the industry takes him in the years ahead. One of the year's most unique talents.
6. Mike Mitchell—Just Like Us (Various)
Well, I'll just come out and admit it: the first few times I saw pics of Mitchell's Just Like Us prints, I didn't get it: generally they're known for their unique style, small size, and the fact that they're all in such infuriatingly short supply, but beyond seemingly momentarily amusing…my skirt was not blown up at first glance. I looked at 'em and I thought, "I guess so?" and then went back to working on the Martin Ansin shrine in my basement (does anyone have a lock of his hair I can borrow?), like a good little fanboy.
That lasted until the Mondo Gallery's Universal Monsters show, where I first encountered a set of his JLU prints in person (see above, below). Similar to how I never understood the draw of screenprinted artwork until I felt one between my fingers for the first time, the draw of Mitchell's Just Like Us series did not hit me until I owned that Uni Monsters set. Now if I could only get my hands on…uh, literally any of the other ones I'm looking for (pssst–hit me up if you're trying to lose an Anchorman set). If, like me, you've never felt like you "got" this series, don't write 'em off until you've added one or two to your collection. In a community already awash in addictively collectible movie-relate prints, Mitchell's series just might just be the most addictively collectible posters currently making the rounds.
Alright, folks. That's it for this five. On Saturday, we'll be back with the final five, along with my pick for the year's MVP artist. If you've got a poster you'd like to see included in an "Honorable Mention" writeup of some sort, shoot me an email at email@example.com to plead your case: if enough people write in arguing on behalf of something we didn't find room for on our list, we'll run the responses in their own writeup. If that sounds like too much work for you, well, fair enough: just stay tuned and prepare for the epic conclusion to our Top 20 Greatest Posters of 2012 series later this weekend (and try not to blow a gasket in the comments section: this is really all for fun, guys, not to turn into a dick measuring contest).
